Sometimes one just needs to make something. I made this sign. I like exploring the concept of text as art. It's not fine art, more of a doodle, a nod to the
sketchbooks of Michael McGuire a Chicago based artist whose finer works I have been ogling recently after discovering
his blog. Several years ago, when I first came across
his artwork in Midwest Living his watercolor paintings of
Lake Michigan and sky above caught my attention delightfully. I'm glad to see he is still making art. I keep trying to overcome the self-doubt that so often follows alongside creative work by sticking it to the inner critic and doing it anyway, one day at a time even if it's something small and doodly. Sometimes one just needs to get something done and move on, much like this blog post!
